101650: Cheating to get a reward he does not deserve

When graduates in my country start working in the private sector, the state gives them a monthly grant. So some graduates just deal with any company to take this grant then he does not work for that company, he looks for another job. What is the ruling on taking this money?.

Praise be to Allaah.

So long as this salary is allocated by the state to anyone
who works in the private sector, because the public interest requires that,
it is not permissible to use tricks to get this reward in ways other than
that which is allowed. In addition to that, this involves lying and
deceiving, which is haraam. For more information please see the answer to
question no. 93579.
